The raids are OPTIONAL content. Normal AND savage. Sorry but if something this basic is too much for you handle, just don't do it. And if that mechanic is too much for you to handle, you can join the roleplayers in the major cities and live your life in Eorzea out there.
I'm sorry you feel this way and wish to word it the way you do. To give you some history of my FF XIV career, I have done savage/extreme trials and I can do them. Also, I would like to give an update on today on progress and maybe help better understand.

After a few more tries I did get it down. I couldn't begin to explain this mechanic and alot of people did get one shotted but it. I like the idea of the mechanic, i don't like the punishment on Normal that comes with. I'm talking strictly the light and dark. It's not consistent with the non light and dark where you have to move to the lane you need to be in. If you mess this up you get a vuln stack which makes sense. Light/Dark will kill you instantly. I have no problem with the mechanic itself. Just the result of messing it up on a normal mode difficulty. It's not consistent.

With E7 down I was excited to move on and get to E8. I loved E8 fight. I love all the fights except E7. Yeah we wiped on E8 but it wasn't nearly as bad and it was easier to learn what was done wrong. After 2-3 more attempts it went down no problem. E7 I had about 4-5 attempts of 60 minutes with each on being abandon. All struggling with the light/dark combined with the portals killing 4-5 people in one hit including tanks.

If it wasn't for this one shot punishment, I would que up for E7 again. However, when reset comes Tuesday, I'm going to skip it. I'll do the other 3 no problem.
